    I agree w/ Brandi. The law is the law, and you should follow it!!! Even if you "love" someone (but, in my point of view,love how everyone uses it,is liking someone to death) you shouldwait 'till you are old enough, not when you think you are old enough!

    I wanted to say something about Brandi comment who is from TX, some people have differeent ways how they fall In love.You can fall In love with someone even If you been with them for months,or maybe a year.Iv'e never been In love, but it Is hard not to fall In love when a boy say's to you that he loves you.It's like when you lose your virginity to a boy, you star to love him.I am very glad we have laws but why make a law about people ages?

    I agree with Abigail, I think they should not make laws about unger girls with older boys because sometimes girls lie about their age and the man gets locked up cause he has falling In love with a unger girl who has lied, and Its hard to stop seeing someone that you have falling In love with or you lost your virginity too so who ever is making these laws they need to think about it first.
